Dude we lost to the Wizards..at home.


I know. I was at the game. I didn't say this was a worst loss. I said this is the worst a team has played against us. They are 4-22 against the worst 3 pt defense in the league.

Don't think it was his decision but I don't mind holding him out of a back to back after his second game back from rehab.

I second guess him all the time. But you were blaming smith and u were wrong.


Dude, Smith is trying as hard as he can. i don't blame him for not giving an effort. But neither he nor Aminu should ever play more minutes then Anderson and Davis.

You said he suckespecially tonite. Davis was rough tonite...you never ever play a player who is playing better? Smith was better tonite. Davis isn't perfect he can struggle and someone else play

If he ever wants a ref to listen to his whining and know he's good and deserves a call I hope you're right. Need to be on court to build a rep

In any given stretch of time, it is better to have Davis on the court than Smoove. They are not close enough such that a "hot day" vs a "bad day" can bridge the difference. Plus, it doesn't matter that much for Davis' skill set. It's not like a guard who can be cold and can't do anything. Does Davis lose length on his bad days? Does Smith get any semblance of quickness cause hes having a good day?

Davis is a future superstar . . . a season or two from now.

Smiht is a mid-level bench player who has shown heart and flashes of a little ability.

We were in a run that cut it to 1 and smith had scor3d multiple times, 1 steal, and a rebound in 4 possessions of that run...and u were screaming get him out. He was the spark plug on that run fRom d side.

Davis was los4 on d tonite and his length wasn't helping on man d or help d.
No one had much help d because our guards were getting raped so bad

Davis really needs to work on his offensive game. He stands around most of the time and is shooting a lot of jumpers. He really needs to attack the basket.

Our defense in the paint was absolutely embarrassing tonight.

Monty really needs to stop putting so many defense oriented players on the court at the same time. 1. They aren't super elite defenders. 2. Guys like Aminu, Mcquire, and Thomas have absolutely zero offensive game outside of the occasional put back.

Vasquez had another nice game even though his shot wasn't falling early. He has averaged 19 ppg and 11 apg over the last five games with a 3 a/to ratio.

Actually, at that point, I was screaming to get Davis in. Aminu was the much bigger issue as Smoove was knocking down some shots. It's easy to go on a run when you don't even have to guard a team for 3. All you have to do in that case is get some post defense in. Sorry, but Smith/Anderson doesn't cut it there, and it showed to the tune of 3 easy layups(one an and 1) in 4 possessions.
